Reviews

This was a very interesting course, but very difficult. The wording of the multi-choice answers did not always match up with the text of the learning materials which made it harder to convert.

I took Psychology before this course and was expecting something similar to that. Let's just say it is nothing like Psychology at all, in terms of set up. I love the topic but got very very bored throughout most of it. Tutorials weren't super long but there were a lot of them and you had to read all the tutorials within a unit before starting challenge 1 in that unit, which kinda sucked. Not bad but not my favorite either.

Some of the questions were worded in a way that truly more than one answer was accurate. I am happy to provide examples of some questions I failed but in the text book showed the the reference so I was not quite sure how it was considered wrong.

This class was awesome. It can be completed in 4 days. Not hard at all and made great sense.

FAQ

Q: What does "Try it for Free" mean?

A:
The Free Trial allows you to access the course of your choice, or multiple courses. It gives you access to the first unit ("Challenge 1") in the course. This will let you meet the course instructors, sample the instructional content, and answer a set of assessment questions in the Challenge. You can also read the Student Guide and watch an Orientation Video to learn more about the course format, requirements, and resources.

Any work you complete in the Free Trial is saved, so if you decide to register, you do not need to repeat it. Of course, we also let you reset it and start over if you wish.

Q: Does Sophia accept third-party payment for tuition, such as financial aid or military benefits?

A:
Sophia courses are not eligible for most third party payment methods. Course tuition is paid by the student, using a credit or debit card. Tuition is due at the time of course registration. Sophia offers a payment plan option for course tuition.

Q: When do the courses start and how long do I have to complete a course?

A:
You choose your own course start date and have 60 days from your chosen start date to complete each course. Sophia courses are self-paced, so many students complete a course in less than 60 days.

Q: Where do I get the textbooks for my course?

A:
You do not need any textbooks for Sophia courses. All material is taught by video and text-based tutorials that are in the courseroom, and are included in the course tuition.

Q: How am I graded in the course?

A:
Sophia courses are graded on a pass/fail basis, with 70% overall required to pass the course. Your score is based upon points earned in the formative assessments ("Challenges"), summative assessments ("Milestones"), and if applicable, the authentic assessments ("Touchstones"). Currently, our Foundations of English Composition, English Composition I, and Public Speaking courses contain Touchstones.

Q: How do I know which courses I should take?

A:
Consult with your academic adviser at your university to determine specifically which Sophia courses could fit into your program. You can download the course syllabus directly from our site to share with your school advisor.

Q: Are the tests proctored?

A:
Sophia courses utilize keyboard biometrics as an alternative to proctoring. No webcam is needed for a Sophia course.

Q: I'm taking a course where I have to submit Touchstones. How long does it take for my Touchstone to be graded once it's submitted?

A:
We provide our faculty graders with up to 7 business days to grade a Touchstone. The actual time may vary based on volume and grader capacity.
